(U-WIRE) - The issue closest to the hearts and livers of University of Wisconsin-Madison students, staff and administration was again deliberated Thursday when the Downtown Tavern Working Group delivered its new position on the possible ban of drink specials in Madison, Wis. Marsh Shapiro, owner of the Nitty Gritty, 223 N. Frances St., led proceedings on behalf of the DTWG, as the tavern owners outlined their proposals, urging both the city’s Alcohol License I Review Committee and UW Madison to agree to their com promise on the issue concerning drink specials and their possi ble relation to undesirable pub lic behavior. “Without acknowledging that drink specials are indeed causing the problem, we as a group have agreed that we will voluntarily and immediately end all drink specials on Friday and Saturday nights after 8 p.m. in our estab lishments,” Shapiro said. This voluntary action, fully supported by more than 20 downtown taverns, was done with the intent of deterring fur ther action by the City Council on the issue of drink special bans. Fauntleroy CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 without want or ambition, who al ways threw himself totally into what he was doing.” “Tal will never be forgotten,” Christie said. Also among those who spoke at the celebration was Jamal Rossi, dean of the School of Music, who described Fauntleroy as a man who was passionate and who possessed the ability to draw something out of his students that they didn’t know they had. Several USC students and fac ulty members performed at the celebration, which was divided into two acts and featured solo performances as well as selections from “La Boheme,” “Martha,” “La Traviata,” “Othello” and “Rigoletto.” Fauntleroy established Studio Lirico, a four-week opera course sponsored by USC and the city of Anghiari, which immersed se lected students in Italian tradi tions and foundations and trained them for careers in opera. Fauntleroy was an accomplished stage director and a specialist in 18th-century Italian opera. He co authored the only book in English on the Italian composer Domenico Cimarosa. The memorial celebration was arranged through the efforts of Christie; Alana Fauntleroy, Talmage Fauntleroy’s sister; and School of Music Director of Development Leslie Wrenn.
